Sotto Mare Oysteria & Fresh Seafood Restaurant

I stopped in on Friday for lunch. I also wanted to watch baseball so i asked the waitress if she could bring my plate to the bar next door. I swear to God, she said ""Sure"". A few minutes later, in walks the waitress who announces to the whole bar, ""I'm looking for the Spoiled Brat who ordered a plate"". I was rather surprised and said ""Excuse me?"". So she said again, ""I'm looking for the Spoiled Brat who ordered a plate"". At this point, everyone in the bar is silent and everyone is looking at me. The bartender is flabbergasted and I feel about 3 inches high. So I again say ""Excuse me?"" and she again says ""I'm looking for the Spoiled Brat who ordered a plate"". I spoke to the manager who said, this is just the way we talk here. I think she's been watching ""Jersey Shore"" too much. Stay Away SpoiledBrat more

Its a somewhat small place located in the heart of North Beach. This place is rocks! By far the best Italian Seafood place I've been to. Give it a shot and you won't be dissapointed! Pros: Delicious EVERYTHING more

Seafood, as the name suggests, so if seafood is not your thing - you might reconsider. I love this place. A gem. Very simple in the interior and the menu, but delicious all the way. Sand Dabs are great. Considering they are hard to come by, their simple preparation is a pleasant and delicious surprise. The linguini is great too - esp the linguini with clams. Go with a healthy appetite, start with the simple yet always satisfying dungeness crab and oysters to whet the palate and move on from there. The atmosphere is comfortable and the staff friendly and attentive. What more can you want? Just know that it's cash only - but there are ATMs all around, so that should not be a problem. Pros: comfortable and casual, with a lot of ambience. Attentive friendly staff. Cons: can be loud - but it adds to the fun; more

Went here for 2 things, the oysters and the cioppino. Started with 2 dozen west coast oysters since we are... more

Good north beach spot if you like pasta, oysters and little necks. They have a decent wine list and the staff is personality plus. Belly up to the bar and enjoy! The sand dabs don't need a thing except a bit of sea salt. The oysters cost a buck each. You might wonder what kind of oyster you can get for a buck but I'll tell you they are terrific. We recently had the linquine and clams and it was terrific. The ambiance is OK and on occasion the music can be a bit loud. Pros: reasonably priced oysters, little necks and wine list, tasty pasta Cons: parking, sometimes loud music more
